• Planned power outage set for 10 a.m. in Boulder County, and may not be the only one this week (dailycamera.com) — Parts of Superior could lose power at 10 a.m. today as Xcel Energy shuts off electricity in high-risk fire areas across Boulder County due to extreme winds and dry conditions. Another outage is possible as early as 6 a.m. Friday, so residents should prepare for multiple disruptions while red flag and high wind warnings remain in effect.
